What is the best looking post war warship?

[tatra]

Propably pr.61 in all it's different clothes. It's perfect example of soviet "estethic" designing with none whatsoever consideration of how the ship would look like, only that it has all what is needed onboard. It's and ugly and crude but exactly what a warship should be... a mean motherf***er:kar

Yep. much like pr57/57A. mostly because of the hull shape though, IMHO

I didnt know you are allowed 1 ship for each category. :unknown

If that is the case, I'll resubmit my choice:

Carrier : US Nimmitz Nuclear carrier.
Missile Cruiser : Soviet Kirov
Destroyers : Uk Type 45 destroyer ( looks neat and mighty isnt it)
Frigates : French Lafayette Stealth class frigates.
LCS : US new Stealthy LCS, no not the Zumvalt class. I saw the pics here in defence talk.

Submarines : Soviet Typhoon!!!!! ( the only sub that has its sail at the back, gives it a mighty command vessel look)

Since everyone is listing multiple ships here is my revised list.

Carrier: USS Enterprise with her original super structure.
Cruiser: USS Albany conversion.
Destroyer: Flight I/II Arleigh Burke
Frigate/LCS: Spanish F-100
Subs all look alike. :
Amphib: I guess the San Antonio class, they sure are sleek looking for their size.

HMS Vanguard just makes it into "post war". Great sea keeping for a batteship.
